    摘要: An additive-manufacturing system for printing spinal implants in-situ, within a patient, is disclosed. The system may include a robotic subsystem having scanning and imaging equipment and an armature including at least one dispensing nozzle and a controller apparatus having a processor and a non-transitory computer-readable medium. The controller may control the scanning and imaging equipment to determine a target alignment of a patients spine, develop an in-situ-printing plan including an in-situ material selection plan based on the target alignment of the patients spine, an interbody access space, and a disc space between adjacent vertebra of the patients spine, and execute the in-situ-printing plan. The controller may further control the armature to dispense at least one material chosen from a rigid material and a pliable material to form at least one motion-sparing implant.

    摘要: A forming apparatus and method for forming a workpiece used a medical procedure is provided. A controllable bending machine for bending the workpiece is provided. A template is manually formable. The template has a shape sensor so as to sense a shape of the template. A controller receives template shape data from the shape sensor and operates the bending machine in accordance with the template shape data. The bending of the workpiece includes a spring back compensating operation which performs a first bending operation on the workpiece in accordance with the template shape data, acquires workpiece shape data from one of the shape sensor re-disposed associated with the workpiece, or another shape sensor associated with the workpiece, and performs a second bending operation compensating for spring back. A method employs the template for workpiece measurements and the forming apparatus using the measurements for forming the workpiece.

    摘要: An implant system is disclosed. The system may include an implant receiver having a base and a first arm and a second arm extending from the base in a longitudinal direction towards an open end. The first arm and second arm may define a receiving cavity therebetween. The first and second arm may each include an outside thread pattern for rotatably supporting a nut movable in the longitudinal direction and an inside thread pattern for rotatably supporting a set screw movable in the longitudinal direction. A rod may be selectively positioned within the receiving cavity at an intermediate elevation between the base and the open end and the rod may be supported by the nut. The set screw may be tightened against the rod thereby locking the rod and nut at the intermediate elevation. In some embodiments, the first and second arms may include a plurality of breakoff locations.

    摘要: A surgical instrument comprises a member defining a longitudinal axis and is connectable with a spinal implant. The member is connected to a handle disposed transverse relative to the axis and rotatable about the axis. An image guide is connected with the member and oriented relative to a sensor to communicate a signal representative of a position of the spinal implant. Systems, implants, spinal constructs and methods are disclosed.
